Abstract
Indiscriminate sand mining can lead to the degradation of riverine environment. The study conducted in the Neyyar river basin shows that indiscriminate and illegal sand mining has created many problems in the environmental setting and water quality of the river basin. In the basinal area, it has created certain negative impacts on landuse, landscape and land stability. Apart from these impacts on physical environment of the river basin, it has also contributed many adverse impacts on the socio-economic well being of the area.
